Me: Why do I want a six foot tail

Me: (remembers teen experiences at the computer store where they would showcase the Amiga with Eric Schwartz's cartoons featuring a squirrel with no top and a skunk with no pants)

Me: Oh, right

@JoyfulSkunk *Giggles!*

I never got to go to an Amiga store, but we did have an old Apple store back when it was for the IIe and IIc models... and no geniuses...

... just nerds and boxes upon boxes of dot-matrix printer paper...

@JulieSqveakaroo @JoyfulSkunk Haha, my first was in the same ultra-beige office park where my dad's trucking company was located. Just a bunch of pegboard displays with clear cellophone bags with one (1) cheaply photocopied paper insert and one (1) game by Sirius Software each. My first game was a text adventure that i can't find ANY trace of, that was definitely NOT a good starter game for a five-year-old... :p My second was Wavy Navy, which went MUCH better. :)

Oh gosh, no... text games were terrible for kiddos unless it was like Snooper Troops stuff.
